I am amazed at this page's CSS. The body text is small so I hit command-+ to make it bigger... and it gets smaller instead. Reset and hit command--... and it also gets smaller. And reader mode's broken.

If this collection of articles would get updated in the future, I hope there is a rss feed for it. But it seems that the site is just a promotion for this Matter app...

Beautiful UI.

What's the criteria for pieces promoted?

Links to some articles are broken, eg. https://www.mikkelaaland.com/sweat-bathing-and-the-body.html gives a cert error on iOS

I recognize many of these, because I've found them through hacker news before. There's probably a lot more treasures on that list.

This needs a subscribe or RSS feed

I have been following that website a while. The curation is great, but the UI is annoying. I can’t easily right click or long press to share with Instapaper. I can’t scroll past the ones I have already seen. A list of links would be much better.

Sorry but two of the top 3 articles were “Friday Night Meatballs: How to Change Tour Life with Pasta”, “The Real Heroes are Dead” and “Wealth: The Toxic Byproduct”.

None of those are wonderful to me.

what am I looking at?

Cards of text that I have to click to further read?
